Alma Margaret Lambert, a beacon of love and wisdom, passed away peacefully on December 10, 2024, at the age of 97, in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Born on June 9, 1927, in the quaint town of Emo, Ontario, Alma grew up imbued with the values of community and kindness that would come to define her remarkable life.
Alma's journey was one marked by an unwavering devotion to her family and an inspiring intellectual curiosity. She was predeceased by her beloved husband, William, and her cherished daughter, Kathryn. Her legacy continues through her daughter, Barbara Pattyson, and son-in-law, Douglas Pattyson, as well as a host of nieces and nephews who were touched by her generous spirit.
Alma's life was a tapestry of loving acts and generous deeds. Her intelligence was evident in her sharp wit and the insightful conversations that endeared her to all who knew her. She approached life with a grace and generosity that uplifted everyone around her, leaving an indelible mark on her community and all who had the privilege of her company.
Throughout her life, Alma was a pillar of strength and compassion. Her home was a haven of warmth, where laughter was shared, and wisdom imparted. Her ability to listen and genuinely connect with people was one of her most treasured qualities.
In her professional life, Alma was respected for her intelligent contributions and steadfast work ethic. Yet, it was her role as a matriarch that she cherished most. Alma's love for her family was boundless, and she was the glue that held the family fabric together, weaving a legacy of love that will endure for generations.
Alma's passing leaves a void in the hearts of those who knew her, yet her spirit will continue to inspire. Her life was a testament to the power of love, intelligence, and generosity to create a life rich in meaning and connections.
As we bid farewell to Alma Margaret Lambert, we celebrate a life well-lived and a woman deeply loved. Her memory will be cherished, and her influence will continue to guide us.
